1. 1. Non-combatants in Hiroshima and Nagasaki paid a horrific price in lives and poor long-term health.
2. Although Hiroshima and Nagasaki are viable cities today, the environmental damage was significant (e.g. radiation, fallout, and black rain).
3. The dropping the atomic bomb on Hiroshima was an inhumane act of cruelty and murder to over a hundred thousand Japanese, and the twenty-three American prisoners of war that were being held in Hiroshima at the time the bomb was dropped.
